Sharing our recent study showing that membrane vesicles produced by E. coli contain the autotransporter protein Antigen 43 and contribute to bacterial cell aggregation and biofilm formation. A fantastic collaboration with @BegonaHeras
@Lauren_Zav and team. https://t.co/q6kEZfmPQ7

No added sugar: CCDC134 stabilizes ER chaperone Gp96 for TLR biogenesis. Leslie Domínguez Cadena and Antje Blumenthal @Blumenthal_Lab discuss new study from @RebsamenLab ( https://t.co/JR54XiVwlI) in Insights: https://t.co/DuNbriK2NW

Check out the Insights piece from A Blumenthal & L Dominguez Cadena @Blumenthal_Lab on our discovery of CCDC134’s role in Gp96 stability and TLR biogenesis. Many thanks to the authors for discussing our work broadly, integrating recent studies by Rohatgi and Locher/Kaelin labs.
Insights: from Cadena & @Blumenthal_Lab @UQMedicine: @RebsamenLab ( https://t.co/OjJu71FkSO) show that CCDC134 located in the ER is required for TLR biogenesis by controlling the N-glycosylation, folding, and stabilization of the ER chaperone Gp96. https://t.co/cMTB6ZskXZ
